Donny's Christmas Pageant was last night at school. The photograph above was the best one we could get. I thought I would be able to snap some really good shots because I was sitting on the aisle. That all ended when the children came into the room with their classes and got into position on the risers. The incredibly rude parents all stood up walked to the front and remained standing in front of the rest of us so they could video the entire performance. I was so angry. This video is very rough and no we didn't take the time to blur the children to protect their identity, Big Daddy is shooting from the rear of the room. But you will notice several things: the people standing completely oblivious to the rest of us, me shaking my head in disgust, and Donny doing his Christmas best. This was the first song they sang, the crowd of standing people grew as the night progressed.
*****I have tried for three days to upload the video and it's just not happening. Sorry.
How handsome you look Donny. I love your hair.
ReplyDeleteYes, those parents are rude. If they are going to do that, they should make copies of the video and give one to every other parent there, who missed the whole thing because of them.
Plan for future years...have a rotating guest take the pictures. This way no one will ever know who the photographer was who pushed their way to the front. You get your pictures and no post pageant backlash!
ReplyDeletewheres the video??
